  1. Wow, some fabulous ways to re use your old silver flatware. As a flatware retailer it is great to see such pieces being used in as many ways as possible and not just solely for eating. I would however ensure you don’t bend or damage any antique sterling silver pieces which may hold some value if they were to remain as pieces of flatware.
